Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The aim of our study is to investigate the effects of a game-based exercise (Exergame) program and trunk stabilization exercise training on shooting performance, reaction time, trunk muscle endurance and balance in adolescents playing archery. While the importance of the effect of trunk stabilization on shooting performance is mentioned in individuals practicing archery, it is emphasized that trunk stabilization training increases sportive performance and protects against injuries in individuals interested in sports for the upper extremity. However, no study is found that directly compared game-based exercise programs and trunk stabilization exercise training in adolescents who play archery. Therefore, two different training programs will be given to the adolescents playing archery at the Archers Foundation Sports Club in Istanbul, and Shooting performance, reaction time, trunk muscle endurance, and balance levels will be evaluated before and after the training.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Trunk Stabilization Exercise Training Group

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Trunk Stabilization Exercise Training Group

Intervention Type OTHER

The adolescents in this group who are involved in archery sports will be given 40 minutes of exercise training 2 days a week for 8 weeks. Exercise training will be applied as 5-10 minutes warm-up, 15-30 minutes trunk stabilization exercises, 5-10 minutes cooling down, and stretching exercises. The number of repetitions and difficulty levels of the exercises will gradually increase in the 3rd and 6th weeks.

Game Based Exercise Program Group

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Game Based Exercise Program Group

Intervention Type OTHER

At least 4 different games selected from Xbox 360 Kinect® games will be applied to adolescents practicing archery sports in this group for a total of 40 minutes with the physiotherapist. The games will be selected from games that include movement patterns similar to the exercises of the trunk stabilization exercise group. Game-based exercise training is planned to be performed twice a week for a total of 8 weeks.
